Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
‘[Prying Into Fate] will consume vitality based on the target’s strength.’
Lin Shurou is now just an ordinary woman, so the consumption of her vitality was almost none.
[June 9th. She will go out to buy vegetables at noon and the price was maliciously raised by the madam shopkeeper. After some tricks, the madam will give it to her for free.]
[June 11th. She will have her period.]
[June 14th. She became best friends with the Holy Elf.]
[June 19th. Because she has been bathing in the spring of holy angels for a long time, she became more beautiful and alluring. She spent a long time with the man she lived with in the living room.]
[June 23rd. She became even more beautiful. She lingers in the kitchen today.]
[June 27th. She waters the flowers in the yard and attracts the birds.]
[July 1st. Her skin is so white that it shimmers.]
[July 6th. She went out with the man she lived with and caused a commotion because of her beauty.]
[July 11th. Her period starts again.]
[…]
“Sh*t…” Ling Yi subconsciously took out his phone to check the date and time.
8th of June, 00:10.
“What’s wrong? What did you see?” Lin Shurou asked curiously when she saw the strange expression on his face. “What’s my future?”
Her watery blue eyes stared at Ling Yi as if she wouldn’t let him leave until he gave her an answer.
“Um…”
Ling Yi pondered for a moment to organize his words. “When you go out to buy vegetables tomorrow afternoon, the shopkeeper will maliciously raise the price. Then, if you often soak in the spring water, you will indeed become more and more beautiful.”
“Tomorrow afternoon?” Lin Shurou furrowed her eyebrows, “Why would I go out at noon? I usually leave early in the morning.”
“I don’t know. Maybe you’ll be delayed by something on the road. I can only see a small part of your future that day. I can’t see the whole thing.”
“I see.” She nodded thoughtfully, her mind seemed to be wondering why she would leave in the afternoon tomorrow.
“I’m going to God’s Path in a bit. You should sleep early.”
“Alright,” Lin Shurou nodded her head and watched Ling Yi’s figure disappear from her sight.
…
Ling Yi was waiting for the item he wished from the [Wish Voucher] to arrive, though there was a possibility of it not coming at all. So he was prepared for both cases.
Two days ago, he had mutated an item that turned into [Pure Food Producer]. This tool could produce one stalk of food every day, and he had already accumulated three stalks.
According to the description, this was what the little Sprites liked to eat.
In the past, some people were given Skills by the Sprites because the players suck up to them. Now that he had something that they liked to eat, the probability of him getting Skills from the Sprites should be higher.
With this thought in mind, Ling Yi headed straight for the Cypress Forest the moment he entered God’s Path. After all, Sprites lived in forests. It’s only logical.
However, on his way, he saw two players fighting at the entrance of the forest.
There were also many players around them, shouting at each other.
“Come on, come on, yellow hair, come on.”
“Go, green mushroom head!”
Ling Yi wanted to walk past them, but when he heard the crowd’s shouts, he couldn’t help but stop in his tracks to see what’s going on.
There were two men around the age of 20 in the middle of the “arena”, punching each other. The two men’s appearances were ordinary, if not for their extraordinary hair.
One was so yellow that it looked like it would shine in the dark, while the other looked like it had watermelon skin on its head.
He used [Eye of Truth] to look at the stats of both sides and found that they were only level 5. Their strength attribute was not too high either, only around 15.
However, even with such low attributes, when their fists landed on the other party’s, they could still make a heavy thud sound.
They would dodge and miss their attacks sometimes and would hit the green cypress tree on the side, breaking the trunks clean off the middle.
[You absorbed 65 points of Li Yuan’s excitement.]
[You have absorbed 55 points from Yang Wei’s happiness.]
[…..]
Looking at the excited expressions of the surrounding players, Ling Yi fell into deep thought.
‘After their combat strength was updated, players seem to have become more violent.’
‘Is it because they have no place to vent their power? Or does the extra power affect their minds?’
He had heard that wealth changes some people.
Does power also change people?
The answer was that it varied from person to person.
Some people would change, and some would not.
Ling Yi, for example, still remembered that the first time he had gone to the Divine Union Branch, the branch lady had given him a gift bag that had said, “May you return to your youth after a thousand sails.”
He would always remember his heart, and would not be blinded by great power or change his perception of the world.
Ling Yi didn’t stay there for long. He turned around and walked into the forest.
Due to the Newbie’s Trial yesterday, everyone had nearly six hours on God’s Path today.
They had plenty of time.
The bright sun shone through the leaves of the cypress tree, shining countless spots of light in different shapes on the grass.
Stepping on the green grass, Ling Yi came to a relatively empty and quiet place. He took out a stalk of pure food and planted it in the ground.
Pure food was a type of rice straw-like plant that was about one meter tall… or he would like to call Green Special Food.
Ling Yi didn’t know how to use them, but if he took them out, the Sprites would probably rush over after smelling the fragrance.
He sat on the grass and stared at the plant in front of him. He couldn’t help but be curious about its taste.
“… If Sprites can eat this, I should be able to eat too, right?”
‘But will there be any special effects after I eat it?’
He sniffed at it and smelled a strange wheat fragrance, which was mixed with the fragrance of spices and a faint burning smell as if he was smelling a sweet wheat grass that was about to be burned.
Just as he licked his lips and was about to take a bite, a yellow butterfly suddenly flew into his field of vision.
Ling Yi didn’t want to pay any attention to it, but the butterfly flew straight towards the food in front of him.
When he got closer, he saw that there were faint yellow sparkles of light flowing from each flutter of its wings.
Seeing this, he immediately activated [Eye of Truth] to check.
[Name: Butterfly Fairy]
[Type: Sprite]
[Description: A fairy that appears in the form of various butterfly species. It has the ability to comfort the dead, bury the past, and bring hope.]
There was very little information, but he could roughly guess what kind of Skills it could give players.
Ling Yi couldn’t help but look forward to it when he saw it stop on the pure food and eating.
When the yellow butterfly began to “eat” the stalk of food gradually turned into green dots of light and entered its body.
Well, it looked more like it was absorbing than eating.
After a while, once it finished absorbing, it started to circle around Ling Yi.
It seemed to be asking if there were any more.
Ling Yi raised his eyebrows and took out the remaining two Pure Foods he had on hand.
Seeing this, the yellow butterfly hurriedly flew to the middle of the two plants and spread its wings. In a flash, the two plants also gradually turned into green light and absorbed into its body.
A few seconds later, it started to circle around Ling Yi again once it finished with its food.
This time, it evidently flew merrily around him. However, Ling Yi didn’t have any food left. He waved his hand and said, “I don’t have anymore,”
Seeing this, the small fairy slowly flew away.
The yellow light from the butterfly’s wings slowly condensed at the place where it had left, gradually condensing into an orange-yellow diamond-shaped crystal surrounded by nine light particles.
When Ling Yi held the crystal in his hand, the fairy had already disappeared into the forest.
